“Goals that seem unattainable become achievable. With Paula’s expertise and guidance I have learnt first-hand the value of exercise and good nutrition and the vital role these key life elements play in maintaining health and self-worth. From 100kg to running 12kms, triathlons and duathlons – anything is possible.”

Training Testimonial by JT

“Paula is great at motivating her clients. She is fun to work with and keeps things varied. She has taught me to train myself, and has given me the tools to succeed both mentally and physically. And that was having to deal with long term injuries too. I have achieved many things which I thought were out of my reach.” JT

The massage was brilliant. I got more out of that massage than I have had of any of the massages I’ve had in the past. I am very keen to get my leg better to be able to train more. SG

Not sore after the treatment, it feels great. I think the stretching also helped my lower back, so great for just one session. After the second session I had no pain at all in my injured knee, my knee has been awesome. LT

About Me

Having always been fit and healthy as a youngster, especially during my horsey and farming days. As I moved away from that world I really missed that active life style, I felt unhealthy and unfit. I sought to join a fitness centre in my local town. I just loved the buzzy atmosphere and energy so much that I soon started to look for courses to qualify as an instructor.

In 1991 I gained my R.S.A (Royal Society of Arts) Certificate in Exercise To Music and this is when the fun began. I soon had numerous venues I coach at from large sports centres, private health clubs, private schools and I also did corporate work. I coached all areas of fitness from aerobics, conditioning, step and soon gained my B.A.W.L.A (British Amateur Weight Lifters Association – Leaders Award) to develop my career into the gymnasium. I attended and presented many master classes, charity events and educational workshops. I helped many others to become instructors, privately and as the Aerobic Co-ordinator at private clubs. These were pretty mad and fun days, I become very passionate about fitness and health.

In 1999 I gained Fitness Instruction and Personal Training qualification which incorporated Sports Nutrition; I knew that Personal Training was a very productive way forwards for me as I saw many keen to improve individually and I was very enthusiastic to help. I was very fit in these days, training myself to a high level, I started road running to keep up with my PT clients – didn’t want them fitter than me hehehe. That is when my running bug begun, which developed into a regular 10-15km most days and competing in 10km, Half and full marathon events. Once I tried a trialthon but I really wasn’t born to be a swimmer.

In 2001 my family and I immigrated to Western Australia where I had a few years off coaching to get my family settled. But I was soon keen to pick it up again and decided I wanted to add more qualifications to my list. I became fascinated with sports specific training and the huge benefits to an athlete to step them up to the top of their game/sport. Cycling often became a big part of athletes training, either for fitness or within rehab so I became a National Certified Cycle Instructor. Also I knew Rehabilitation was a must, in my search for knowledge in this area I also added Sports and Fitness Massage and Remedial Pilates, which is giving me a huge tool box of knowledge to aid individuals in their training programmes.

Studying Exercise and Nutrition for Children was very interesting and helpful in my career; it’s very different coaching and training a child then an adult, both physically and mentally. This has aided me to develop whole family units into a fitter life; training at the same time but specific in their own abilities and goals.

I live in a beautiful rural area in the South West of Australia and I really love coaching PT and group sessions within my area. I live within a fantastic community, meeting the most amazing people, all of which hold different passions and goals. With each and every new client I learn more and more. I have included challenges locally like mini triathlons, dualthons, running groups etc to cater for people who seem very keen to fit fitness into their lives. I feed off and admire the already established athlete and just get the biggest buzz out of meeting newbies and changing their lives to a healthier one, showing them that they CAN do it.

I really like working with normal people who have normal lives, busy families, businesses, injuries, lacking knowledge and a purpose to train.
